Saturday 5 22 21 morning call

No photos from yesterday, this is Annie Reickert by Sweetwaterhawaii.


5am Surfline significant buoy readings and discussion.
South shore
Barbers
1.5ft @ 15s from 181° (S)

Lanai

1.4ft @ 16s from 171° (S)

Small long period energy at the buoys. Check the Lahaina or Kihei webcams if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.


North shore
Waimea

0.4ft @ 14s from 308° (WNW)
0.2ft @ 16s from 288° (WNW)

Pauwela

4.1ft @ 8s from 76° (ENE)
2.4ft @ 5s from 64° (ENE)

NW energy is gone, 4ft 8s of ENE windswell is what's on tap today and that's not much. Home guess for Hookipa is borderline flat with small waves at Pavillions.

Forecast and energy spectrum of Pauwela from this PACIOOS page.



Wind map at noon. The other ones can be found here (click on animation of the 10 meter column).
